Correct: Box 1 and Box 2. Administrators only as HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG &HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ are system-wide registry keys. Box 3. Any user as HKEY_CURRENT_USER affects only the logged in user. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/sysinfo/registry-hives

I think the answer is wrong. As a standard user I cannot add a key to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software on my computer

Are you trying that on a personal machine Nodorf or a work one? I was thinking perhaps it might be restrictions set on a corporate device preventing you adding it. In my way of thinking we should be able to amend this as its current user but my corporate machine wont allow it either, in our case you need admin rights to install software which I believe is why I am prevented adding a key as I am in regedit as a standard user.
